If you have ubuntu and fedora on the same machine, you should see a separate partition for each.
If you have a separate /boot partition, you may want to check if you have 2 Linuxes in there too.

Linux installers have a *very* poor record of recognising other Linux installs, but generally find Windows o.k. Go figure.

There is a chance that the FC install still exists - there is also a chance that Ubuntu installed over the top of it. Ubuntu requires you to use sudo for root access - try "sudo fdisk -l".
If FC still exists, you can simply add an extry for it to the Ubuntu menu.lst
